Hello and welcome to the January issue of Tomorrow’s Retail Floors.
Happy New Year! I hope you all had a restful break and are ready to take 2017 by storm. Here at TRF, we’re starting the year with a bang, bringing you plenty of exciting news and features including an extensive review of the Surface Design Show.
Last year we saw a broad variety of bold and beautiful trends surfacing within the world of residential flooring and this year is set to be no different. To give you some inspiration and a heads up on what to look out for, we spoke to the experts and have compiled a spread of the looks they have predicted to be big news in 2017.
To make sure our first issue of the new year is as exciting as possible, we decided to offer a slightly different angle to our regular ‘In Store at’ feature this month by speaking to a manufacturer. Original Style, manufacturer and supplier of tiles, has a whole network of retailers who sell its products, as well as having its own showrooms. We spoke to Henry Brook, Head of Retail Stores at Original Style, to find out more about how the company runs its showrooms and keeps up with ever-changing trends.
